Third Person's POV
"Princess! Is there a way to make it fast?!" The Grand Duke said.
"Right now, we're making every effort to make it quickly!" The Princess replied.
Twenty seconds.
"Sh!t! They keep on coming!" The commander spoke as a fresh wave of demons approached.
"Ten seconds!" The princess said.

'Ssshhhaaa!!!' When they spotted the crystal hovering above the sky, everyone halted what they were doing.
All of the beasts vanished when the crystal burst. Not only the beasts; their wounds have already healed. Glancing up once again, they noticed that the gem was shining. The continent of Disas was sealed. Everyone let up in an eruption of rejoicing, declaring that the fight was over. And the ice in the sea started to melt.
Returning to the shore, they all stared at the Disas continent as it slowly vanished before their very eyes.
"They did it," a man whispered while watching the entire scene from a great distance. Now that the battle was over, the sky was getting more clear.
"Would you like some tea, my lord?" The butler said.
"I would love that." He spoke.
"Then I will prepare it right away."
"Thanks." The butler lowered his head before leaving the room. He looked outside and sighed in relief.

"Now that the battle is over, it doesn't mean we need to let our guard down," The princess said.
"The seal can only last up to fifty years, and we need someone to guard the crystal, since monsters will keep on attacking the seal—someone who is trustworthy and a strong mage to protect the seal." She added. Most of them shared their thoughts with everyone. It took 5 hours to persuade the other nobles to agree.
"Then, it's settled. Beast-man, Seymour Baines, from the Wolf Clan, will guard and protect us away from the Disas continent." Crown Princess Elirian Whalia Angora said. Some of them were against the decision and complained.
'I disagree.'
'Please choose again, your highnesses.'
'We have mages that's stronger than him.'
'I agree with him, your highnesses.'
"Then how about you three guard the crystal?" The Crown Princess Elirian bluntly said. And the three nobles became silent. The Crown Princess walked towards them.
"Tsk, these humans are too greedy." The Crown Princess Elirian used her aura to frighten them, and the three noblemen cowered in fear.
"That's enough, Crown Princess Elirian." Imperial Crown Prince Reeve said coldly, and the Crown Princess's aura slowly disappeared.
"I think you're forgetting that they are also a noble, granted by the gods and goddesses, Alexio." The Princess said.
"Tsk, these lucky punks." The Crown Princess said and glared at them.
"*Clears throats* Well, that's all for today. Are there any objections?" The Grand Duke said and no one spoke or said a word.
"Then you are all dismissed." Everyone left the tent except for Crown Prince Lucas and his secretary, Kelvhan, Count Lysanthir and his son, Killian, Duke Ravana and his son, Zain, Imperial Crown Prince Reeve and his right hand, Elkhazel, Grand Duke Venreith and his son, Silve, Princess Rhyne and her secretary, Raziel, Crown Princess Elirian and the five beast-men, Pierce, Leighton, Oswald, Seymour, and Drage. No one dared to talk at first and was waiting for the others to speak and ask questions. After a minute of silence, the Crown Prince stepped forward and looked at the Count.
"Who is it?" He asked first.
"..." The Count didn't utter a word and remained silent.
"Who gave you the crystal?" he asked coldly, glaring at him. Everyone's attention was on the Count, who was sitting quietly.
"That's-" The Princess stepped up but was cut off by someone.
""Someone gave it to me, but I can't tell you who he was." The Count said.
"..."
"....."

"He is someone who we can't mess with. He's a being that has a higher status. And if I tell you who he was, our kingdom shall pay an enormous price." He said, and the Princess and the Five beast-men nodded.
"Have you met him?" The Crown Princess asked Princess Althee, and she nodded.
"Yes, but I can't tell you." She replied, and the Crown Princess gave her a confused look.
"We took an oath not to tell anyone about his identity, since he promised that he will reveal himself to everyone when the time comes." Killian said.
"But now is not the right time." The Count said,
"We hoped everyone understood." The Princess lowered her head, pleading with everyone to stop digging for some information about the person who helped them.
"*Sigh* Fine, fine we get, lift your head princess. Everyone might think that we are the bad guys in this conversation." The Imperial Crown Prince said, and she lifted her head.
"Thank you for understanding, your highness." She said talking comfortably to everyone.

"Callis." A rabbit appeared kneeling, and his right hand was on his left shoulder in front of him.
"You called, my lord?" The rabbit respectfully asked the man.
"Is there anything unusual that happened while I was gone?" He spoke.
"Everyone's doing great on taking care of the island, but..." He hesitated and lowered his head to avoid his lord's gaze.
"Continue." He coldly said.
"*Clears throat* The King of Dragons, Xaithus, recently found out about the identity of the dragon egg that the Crown Prince of Lustina found inside the forest." The rabbit said.
"And?" The lord kept on tapping his right index fingers on his left arm, signifying that he was impatiently waiting for an answer.
"That dragon egg is the descendant of the first dragon king, and that egg never hatched after a thousand years of living on this continent." The rabbit said, and he went into silence.
"..."
"My lord?" The rabbit asked when he saw him walking towards the balcony.
"It's no use." He spoke.
"Pardon?" The man looked up to the sky and all the birds flew towards the north.
"Bring Xaithus here, right now."
